The Simpson hype is just something I can't wrap my head around. I can't see drafting a guy in the 1st whose absolute ceiling looks to be Kirk Cousins. 

Thats just Jeremiah pumping the thought that the Rams will take him in the 1st round. He also has him ranked as a late second round prospect. DJ is the only mock that predicts him a day 1 pick.

I'd be surprised if the Rams were all that interested in him. I mean, they moved on from Goff pretty quickly because they saw that his physical ceiling was limited. I just don't see plus NFL tools with Simpson. He's just NFL average Joe across the board IMO.

I'm not sure what his thinking is behind that either. I'm sure the Rams can do better than Simpson as a future successor to Stafford.

Big guys with a history of foot injuries give me a lot of pause. They have a bad track record of reoccurring and he already has a history of reoccurring foot injuries.

Ohh, didn't know that was a thing with Banks. Hmmmm.....yeah, I'd be nervous about that too.

There's already been 7 DTs go sub-5.0. 4.76 leading the pack. Pretty wild.

The 10 yard split is what you want to look at for DL. That first 10 yards is where they earn their money.

I could see the Jets snagging him with their second FRP. Take Reese/Downs/Mauioga at 2 and then come back for Simpson at 16. 

Doesn't help us gain any future picks, but will push someone talented to us at 19.

    • Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .  
    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
